For those of you that don’t know, there was a fire at Lou’s Lounge (also known as Whiskey Lou’s) on Saturday night. Jack Scott, manager of the bar, says he believes the fire was started by an old spotlight by the stage area. The fire was over the dance floor by the stage and the jukebox. No one was harmed and everyone was cleared out when they noticed the fire at around 11 p.m.

Many that saw the fire (picture on the right) have been asking when will Lou’s reopen? Scott is hoping by this weekend. “The inside is all cleaned up and ready to go,” says Scott. “I’m just waiting for the fire marshal to come tomorrow morning to see if we can open.”
